We were privy to some incredible displays on both our trips on Saturday. A handful of our recent humpback whale sightings have been very active. While whales (all whales) can breach, it doesn't mean they do it often. And yet, in recent weeks, we have been so fortunate to witness this spectacular behavior from numerous individuals. Grateful and humbled to the core. During our morning trip, we checked out six humpback whales including Pitcher, Patches, Pinball, her 2023 calf, and Mogul. However, our first whale, not-yet-identified, was the show-stopper. This whale breached numerous times with plenty of flipper-slapping in between.

On our afternoon trip, we spent time watching humpback whales Gondolier, Patches, Chromosome, Spoon and Jawa. These sightings included a few whales we haven't seen in a bit and even newcomers for the season.

This time, Jawa was the whale that became active - breaching and flipper-slapping. Stunning displays from wild animals are always an incredible moment.

Sunday, the weather kept us on land. Hoping this coming week will provide nice weather, whales to be seen and memories to be made!
